Hypocrite no more!

My first work exposure was with Maxis, I was one of the pioneer team setting up the Call Centre back in 1997. The economy was bad hence not many people opted to work for a telecommunication company. Being a fresh graduate, I choose not to be picky about jobs and just grab this opportunity. Alhamdulilah, it went well and I enjoyed my tenure there.

And why am I telling you all this. Due to this exposure, I developed this customer oriented skills, love to make people happy. Then, I continued to pursue to be in the service industry and somehow landed a job in the HR area. But, I'm proud to say I landed this job because of my customer servicing skills.

However, through my working years, I've seen many things contradicts to my belief. I am never good in office politics which my better half said sometimes we just need to play a bit of politics here and there to get what we want. Me, being a firm believer of work quality speaks for itself, have always disagreed with him. But, over the years, this theory from my better half tends to me very very true.

There's this one individual who was one of my bosses for a little while, whom I tried to make this person like or to be comfortable with me but I just couldn't. God knows I tried, ever since the first day this person join our company. Sucking up is never my forte but sadly, I even tried to suck up to this person. I tried almost everything for the sake of working harmony.

But, I guess, this person has made up this person's mind that this person just don't like me since the first day this person saw me. This person even accused me of being an incompetent employee and my job quality is very poor. Too bad, 4 appraisals have passed and my boss feels otherwise. I've always scored excellent in my ratings and got promoted the second year.

I've had enough of this. I tried to cooperate in everyway I can. I even went the extra mile beyond my job scope so that I can please this person. Well, no more. Too bad if you don't like me. Your loss, not mine. At least, I am a better person. You decided you don't like me even before you get to know me and I decided I just don't like you after nearly 4 years! And for you to listen to the instigator who are trying to climb up the career ladder by stabbing others, too bad for you. One day, you will be stabbed by the instigator, the same instigator who stabbed me.

Hypocrite no more! I will not try anymore to make you don't like me. I will focus with my work and start standing up for myself. If you don't like me, well, the hell with it. I am fine with that!
